The worst transportation company in the world. I highly recommend not making any appointment with this company. They try to make me sick, waiting for them to pick up my items. They gave me too many excuses every single day for two weeks

My shipment was supposed to be…
My shipment was supposed to be delivered on Monday. It is Wednesday and it is still not here. They said they could not deliver today because they have to switch to a smaller truck. I don't even know if they really tried to deliver today. I cannot trust them anymore. Look at all these bad reviews. I don't know if I will ever get my shipment.

Bait and Switch
Bait and Switch
Twice in a row I was scammed by Central Transport. They provided low quotes through third party logistics providers and then "reclassified" the shipment and charged a substantially higher price.

Terrible
What can i say besides the fact that they are thiefs and liars. I sell engines and transmissions and ship about 15 items a day i started using them for about a week booking through a reputtable third party company i saw that they had good rates at first but when the incoices started coming thats when i realized how bad this company is. Don't believe any of their quotes. They will lie about how much your item weighs and charge you 3-400% of what the quote actually is. Nothing but theifs in this company they will break your costumers valuables none of their trackings work. basically just thiefs.

Avoid this company at ALL costs
Avoid this company at ALL costs! We used a broker who said that they are not a preferred carrier but still assigned the load to them anyway. Order was put on truck on 4/26/23. Their system shows picked up from terminal on 5/3/23. Then didn't hear anything so called today 5/8/23 and they said it's being picked up today. We had dealt with them back in 2014-2015 and had the same issues, just failed to tell the broker this time to not use them at all costs.

I special ordered a Cub Cadet Zero turn mower from Home Depot on April 8, 2023 and received it from the factory in Tennessee two days earlier than promised on April 17, 2023. The driver even brought the crate most of the way up my 400 ft driveway that they're only required to leave curbside. I am very happy with Central Transport especially in light of so many negative reviews.

So exhausted dealing with them..
So exhausted dealing with them... I currently have four, going on five, ICR's in process because they keep reweighing our product at the terminal INCORRECTLY. We have two scales here, recently calibrated, that weigh correctly yet somehow they keep reweighing at 60... 100lbs... here and there, just randomly. We provide pictures of our weights for proof, they claim their certificates are legitimate documents but the math never adds up. For example, if you have a case that weighs 25 lbs, and you are shipping 10 cases, your product is 250lbs. Let's add 25-30lbs for a standard wooden pallet to send around 280-285lbs. So why do they tell me they reweigh at 345lbs? Where, where did the extra weight come from? All they say is whatever their scales weigh is what the bill is, and that's that. I don't know what to do anymore, they aren't trying to help us at all. What do we do?? They are screwing us and our own customers.

These guys are crooks!
These guys are crooks!! They were about $50 cheaper than the next option so I used them like an idiot. Actually got here quickly, I unloaded with my forklift, the driver took off without letting me get out. When I unwrapped the pallets obviously one had been tipped over and a $500 item destroyed, the plastic it was wrapped in was stuck inside under a wheel so obviously done after shipped. A couple days later they added a couple hundred because they say my weight was wrong, whatever. but then the next week I get an email that they're adding almost $400 more, $85 for residential, not true, $187 for liftgate and $75 for unloading labor, it was delivered in a semi that didn't even have a liftgate! I unloaded both pallets quickly in their time frame and they're trying to charge an absolutely ridiculous amount saying they did it. Then on top of all of that $35 inspection fee when he just ran!! Any other company would charge $40 for residential and $40 for liftgate if they were used. This company is a joke and are absolute crooks, How are they in business??
